AMERICANS TO BE TAKEN FROM CHINA (Continued Prom Page One) 'solely for protection" of American lives and property. . NANKING ATTACK REPORTED WASHINGTON, Feb. I (fl) The navy -was advised today that Jap anese warships at Nanking had open ed fire without warning on Nanking, until last week tho capital of the Chinese government, The lone American destroyer there. the Simpson, changed Its position to be sure of safety. The Japanese have a strong force of warships in the river there. Some 200 American citizens are in the city. The destroyer Simpson, commanded by Lieutenant Commander P. W. Rutledge, is the only United States war ship at Nanking, which is 125 miles above Shanghai. American consular officers there requested additional destroyers Sat urday, when threats of Japanese- Chinese clashes became acute. One or more of the four destroyers which arrived at Shanghai yesterday will bo dispatched up the Yangtse. The Simpson reported last night that the Chinese have a large con centration of land forces there. President Hoover was advised im mediately of the critical develop ment. Danger involved was far from minimized. It doubtless means that any strong measures necessary for protection of American citizens will be taken at once. Other powers probably will do like wise. Coincidental with arrival of the startling report from the Simp son, the Italian government notified Washington It was Joining with this country, Great Britain and France In protesting against the Japanese course at Shanghai.

At that time both aides asserted hos tilities were not contemplated. . Consular officers at Nanking on Saturday warned Americana to be prepared to evacuate within two hours. The Chinese were reported at that time as throwing up barri cades and sand bag embattlements In preparation for an attack. The Chinese legation said today that reports from its government was that the Japanese attacks at Shang hai were wanton and were conducted without regard to "any principles of international law." The legation said the Japanese at tacks on Shanghai were made alter the Chinese authority had virtually agreed to all Japanese demands. The telegram from the foreign of fice also sold, the legation reported, that Japan had sent additional war crnft toward Nanking. MISSIONARY GROUP SAFE LONDON, Feb, 1 (Pi A cable from Rov.
